As a stockbroking and wealth management firm our Investment Managers have regular contact with the country's leading fund management groups. It is difficult for a single fund management group to have sufficient expertise across all sectors and geographic areas. So we research which fund managers are best in each particular area and “cherry pick” the best for you. The Pilling Ideal Portfolios (PIPs) are six portfolios of funds carefully selected by our Investment Managers. These are the: -

• Growth PIP

• Aggressive Growth PIP (formerly Select Opportunities PIP)

• Income PIP

• Higher Income PIP

• Overseas Growth PIP

• Conservative PIP When selecting a fund or trust it is essential to know: -

• The fund manager and his ability

• The portfolio strategy both current and looking ahead

• Sector and/or geographic weightings

• Tracking error, where applicable, and volatility

• Gearing strategy (for investment trusts only)

• Discount/premium situations (for investment trusts only)

• Currency hedging strategy for overseas fund We continually monitor these points by having regular meetings and dialogue with managers. The PIPs can be bought in your Pilling ISA & SIPP portfolios. They can also be bought via a Pilling Nominee Account. Due to the spread of investments we suggest the minimum investment should be £20,000 per PIP. You may add further money to the PIP later if you wish providing it does not breach any contribution limits for ISAs and SIPPs. PIPs are only available on a discretionary basis which means that we make changes to the portfolio when we think it best to do so. You will be sent contract notes when any changes are made and we provide you with a full report on the progress every six months. Changes may be prompted by: -

• An underperformance within a sector

• A sector falling out of favour

• A change in the management of the fund

• A change to the economic environment

Our PIPs are managed within our Investment Management Department where our five managers collectively have over 100 years of portfolio management experience. This is important since it means that between them they have experience of all kinds of markets. In addition they have experienced a diversity of economic and monetary conditions from the hyper-inflation of the 1970s to the near deflationary level now; from the 17% Bank of England minimum lending rate of the early 1980s to the all-time 0.5% low now; from monetary tightening and credit restricting periods to the current period of loose monetary policy and quantitative easing. These changing economic and monetary conditions have shaped the way the markets and individual sectors have performed. In order to have optimised portfolio returns investment managers must have been able to have read the runes in order to plot a successful course. Within our PIPs we use collective investments – unit trusts, OEICs and within some models, investment trusts. With a proliferation of funds to choose from however, great care has to be taken to select the very best and ensure that those selected remain optimal in terms of performance. The vast majority of funds are run more for the benefit of the fund management groups than investors. In order to ensure that the best of breed of funds are selected we have direct access to the managers via meetings and regular telephone and web dialogue. We do not simply look at the performance track records that the managers have achieved, we analyse how such performances have been achieved and assess the probability for them to be sustained. We look at each manager’s ability to read market trends and examine their top down approach. Of perhaps greater importance is to examine their stock picking ability. We like to deal with managers who have the ability to understand company accounts and who can identify instances of ‘creative accounting.’ Over the course of a year we have a very large number of meetings and webcasts with fund managers and specialist analysts and this enables us to sustain outperformance and to cull the very small number of funds that may threaten to let us down. A point worth stressing is that since Pilling & Co is not one of the mammoth sized players in portfolio management we are able to take advantage of the few small funds managed by successful boutiques that have the ability to significantly outperform. Asset managers who look after billions have to overlook these since they cannot obtain sufficient exposure to cover all of their clients. Many investment trusts are being overlooked by big name asset managers for this reason and this gives us a significant advantage. We have had great success with our PIPs since 2001 when the Income and Growth models were launched and we continue to make every endeavour to keep such performance going.

If you would like to sell existing holdings to raise cash to invest in a PIP, we will charge our normal commission of 1.65% on the first £10,000 and 0.5% on any balance, per bargain. Additionally, our normal commission will be charged on purchasing the investments in the PIP and, any switching of investments thereafter. Our custody fee is 0.5% per annum charged six monthly in arrears on the total value of ALL your accounts with Pilling & Co. The fee has a minimum of £43.60 and a maximum of £152.60 per year. If you are registered for using Client Web Access (CWA) these fees reduce to a minimum of £41.80 and a maximum of £146.30. In other words, any value over £30,520 (non CWA) and £29,260 is free so you may wish to consolidate your investments from other managers.

Our management charge is also lower than our normal discretionary rate at 0.5% plus VAT per annum on the value of your PIP assets. This is levied proportionately every six months at the time of our report. The individual funds also charge annual management fees which will be reflected in the unit price. Details of these charges will be available on the managers websites.

RISK PARAMETERS

Investing in any asset class will involve risk at varying degrees, and this may result in you not receiving back the original amount you invested. There are many factors to consider such as timing and external financial events. Please note that the portfolio may hold individual stocks from outside of your risk profile but the overall effect will meet the profile selected. It is a fact of life that capital growth or a higher income return can only be achieved with some degree of risk. The greater the potential growth or income yield, the higher the risk will be. We suggest that you think about the risks inherent in the investments you are making and in very broad terms, for your guidance we classify the three major risk categories as follows:- The risk profile of each PIP has been determined by a number of factors including the combination of funds and the strategy employed by the investment manager and the respective fund managers. The Conservative Managed PIP may not have a 50/50 split of low and medium risk investments and in isolation some of the funds or their underlying investments may not be classed as low risk. WARNING: - We make every reasonable effort to ensure that your investments meet with your risk requirements. At the time of investment our understanding and the market’s opinion in general of a security’s risk category will be applied as per your answers on the investment questionnaire. The quality of our service is dependent on the accuracy of the information you provide us with. If you fail to disclose material facts about yourself or supply information that is inaccurate this may compromise the suitability of our services. It is therefore vital that you provide us with a comprehensive and accurate picture of your circumstances and requirements.

PILLING INVESTMENT RISK GUIDE The Risk Guide below will assist you in completing the enclosed PIP application form and deciding which PIP risk profile is most appropriate for you. If you are unsure which PIP meets your investment objectives, please discuss this with your Investment Manager before selecting a PIP model. LOW RISK These can include cash and fixed interest sterling denominated securities issued by major governments and corporations. In addition unit trusts, OEICs and ungeared collective investments investing principally in the above are acceptable. Please note however that a high exposure to gilts and other fixed interest securities might constitute a high risk policy since their capital values and the real value of the income that they produce are affected by interest rate fluctuations and inflation MEDIUM RISK Medium risk investments may include other fixed interest investments, shares in FTSE 100 Index constituent companies, well-established FTSE Mid 250 companies (perhaps ex-FTSE 100 stocks) and where possible (e.g. where the capital commitment is great enough) a judicious spread of shares in large and medium capitalized companies, Unit Trusts, OEICs, Investment Trusts and similar packaged investments in the major western markets (UK, Europe, North America) as well as internationally diversified examples of such funds are included. Some sector specialist, ethical and single company country funds can be used as part of a diversified portfolio. Modest portfolio allocation in smaller companies in the major western markets via managed collective investments is also acceptable. Insurance company and investment management company managed or multi-manager products are generally acceptable, either as part of a portfolio or in isolation. HIGH RISK High risk covers all other types of investments not mentioned above and can incorporate weighting or even exclusive concentration on smaller capitalized or recent start-up businesses, junior markets and trading facilities (e.g. AiM and ISDX Growth) or venture capital vehicles. Collective and packaged versions of the above are acceptable as well as offshore, non-sterling denominated or hedge funds. Investments in lesser-developed markets e.g. Asian and Emerging Markets are also included. Warrants, covered warrants (securitised derivatives), options and other forms of derivatives also come under this category and you are required to complete a further application form (available on request) to help us assess whether complex products of this nature are appropriate for you.

DISCRETIONARY MANAGEMENT SERVICES Report Dates

This Agreement sets out the arrangements under which we will provide our Discretionary Management Services.

• We will manage for you the PIP portfolio that you have chosen on the “PIP contribution form”.

• We shall have full discretion, and without prior reference to you, to enter into any kind of transaction or agreement for your account in or relating to the type of investment you have elected for.

• Other than the periodic reviews, statements and valuations, or unless requested by you or your Personal Investment Manager, you will not be contacted with regard to any aspect of the operation of your account.

• You will receive a contract note confirming the details of each transaction carried out on your account within a few days of dealing.

• Our Charges and Fees for the PIP services are as stated on page 3 of this document. We reserve the right to alter charges with one month’s written notice.

• Investment Objectives - we will proceed on the basis that your investment objectives and risk parameters are as set out by your selected model portfolio. We may from time to time write to you to confirm that these objectives are unchanged and, in any event, should you wish to modify them you must notify us in writing as soon as possible.

• Execution Only Arrangements - transactions conducted on your behalf will always be entered into under the principles of suitability and best execution. However, on some occasions you may wish to instruct us to carry out transactions which you will not expect us to be responsible for advising you about their investment merits.

• Portfolio Review and Performance Report - we will send you an in depth analysis and review of your own portfolio every 6 months, a statement, a reconciliation of its performance and a general economic report.

• Basis of Performance Measurement – the percentage increase or decrease in the value of your portfolio since your last report will be shown alongside the percentage change (over the same period) in the level of an agreed benchmark (e g. FTSE All Share Index) that is appropriate for the PIP selected. (See descriptions on pages 3 and 4)

If your total portfolio value drops by 10% (and multiples of 10% thereafter) from the value at the last agreed reporting date we will report to you before the end of that business day. Where you have given authority to another person to act on your behalf, for example a Financial Advisor, we may provide this report to them rather than you directly.

• Basis of Valuations - investments quoted, listed or regularly dealt on a recognised investment exchange will be valued at their middle-market quotation on that exchange unless stated otherwise. Unquoted investments will be valued at cost or such other value as we may consider appropriate at the time. Current exchange rates will be applied when valuing holdings in foreign currencies. We reserve the right to adopt any other method of valuation when we have reasonable grounds for believing that another approach more accurately reflects the market value of a particular investment.
